NL25 JJ overpair oop, turn brings Q
 

Ok, some more advice needed, thank you!

<u>Reads:</u> villain is almost unknown, I sat down like 3 orbits before or so, it´s enough to say he´s not a complete nit and he didn´t come to gamble badly, apart from that i can´t say yet.

<u>Question:</u> Turn play. He only has ~pot sized bet behind. What do we do now?

EDIT: arr-een.

Re: NL25 JJ overpair oop, turn brings Q
 

I think I'd just jam the turn. If he flopped a straight then so be it, but I think a draw is MUCH more likely and I would hope that a set would raise that flop. If he doesn't have the straight or a weird QQ+ he's got to fold right? He might not be very good judging by stacks and you might get some random 88-TT to call as well so it probably is still pretty marginal. If he's bad he might have called the flop bet with any 8x or something like that. But I only like exactly 1 river card so I'd like to take it down now. Tough spot.

Re: NL25 JJ overpair oop, turn brings Q
 

get it all in. his most likely holding is 8x possibly 78. either way you are most likely ahead but lots of river cards will kill the action. the queen is actually a safe card for you as it is likely it did not hit his hand. so if you think your good on the flop you are good on the turn with one card to come

Having 50BB stack probably means he's not too competent. You'll get looked up by a large range of hands that you beat if you shove here, so naturally I shove.

Calling preflop w/ AQ and KQ is probably not a very good play, but it´s nothing unheard of. Calling a c-bet w/ two overs isn´t that strange either.

I guess shoving is right anyway.
